entirely unique product, separate from

Q A M®, that focuses on

hand and machine stitch. Unlike the digital

editions of Q A M®,

which are exact digital replications of the

print editions, Q A S

was developed solely as a digital product so

that it can capitalize on all the benefits of

online media capabilities, including videos,

slideshows, zoom options that enable you

to see close-ups of quilts, patterns that

can be downloaded and printed, abilities

to hyperlink to special sites, and so much

more.

4. Will Q A S beavailable as a print magazine?

Because this was built as a digital product, it

will not be printed as a traditional magazine

However, we hope you'll take advantage

of the many printable materials we've

included.

5. Will Q A I S

mean that Q A M

will stop printing?

Absolutely not! Q A Sis an entirely separate, additional product

to the Quilting Arts family. Q A

M® is still our flagship publication.

We’re celebrating our 10th anniversary, and

have exciting issues ahead as we greet the

next 10 years!
